Today, Take-Two Interactive reported their first quarter's financial results. There are some pretty interesting bits in their report (which can be found here), but something we're really interested in is the facts in this piece:

Titles planned for the second quarter from Rockstar Games include Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition REMIX for both the PlayStation 2 Greatest Hits program and the Xbox Platinum Hits collection, shipping next week, and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories for PlayStation 2, planned for release in late April.

So, LCS is planned for release in late April, though Jordan from PlanetGTA reports that an unofficial source ( PSXExtreme.com ) claims it will be released on the 17th of April, with a cost of $29.99. So, I guess we're not exactly 100% sure on this one, but the release date isn't too far away, and we'll know soon enough.

Yeah, I can't wait for DER, that's pretty awsome that they're classifying it as a Greatest Hit right from launch, a really good move by R*.
But hopefully with LCS on ps2, they'll have some sort of multiplayer added in, better than what we saw in SA...

LCS for PS2 on April 18th, cause the 17th is a monday.... only 30 bucks. A brand new GTA game for PSP later this year, probably in October. The next big GTA console game for PS3 wont be until next year 2007, since PS3 has been delayed till the end of this year.

Oh no, Sony won't delay it that far, the latest would probably be Dec. 2006
But that would just push sales through the roof is that was made possible. Just think if Microsoft would've done the same thing with Halo 3 at the same time, all hell would break loose.

as long as they beef up LCS then i would be interested. I wont be buying it if its the same as the PSP what a was of money.
I mean the psp version is a small game and the PS2 can have alot more in it like GTA: SA. So they would have to add lots to it like lots of new missions and all the shit that made SA great. Shops, mini games the list goes on
